5 DEFINITIONS

1 UPS Module: The portion of the UPS system, which contains the rectifier/charger, inverter, static bypass switch, controls, monitoring, and indicators.

2 Rectifier/Charger: The portion of the UPS module, which converts the normal source AC input power to DC power for the inverter input and for charging the battery.

3 Inverter: The portion of the UPS module, which converts DC power, from either the rectifier/charger or the battery, to regulated and filtered AC power, which is supplied to the critical load.

D. Static Bypass Switch: The portion of the UPS module, which automatically transfers the critical load (without interruption) between the inverter output and the bypass AC power source.

5 Battery: The battery system that provides DC power to the inverter input when the normal AC input power to the UPS module fails or in the event that the rectifier/charger should fail.

6 Critical Loads: Those loads that require regulated continuous AC power and which are connected to the output of the UPS module.

6 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

1 The UPS system shall consist of a UPS module and a battery. The AC output of the UPS module shall be connected to the critical loads. The battery shall be connected to the DC input of the UPS. The UPS configuration shall be a single module or multiple paralleled UPS modules rated to supply the load as specified herein. Special paralleling cabinets, control cabinets and bypass circuits shall not be required for parallel systems. Up to Six (6) modules may be paralleled in any combination for capacity or redundancy.

2 Proprietary software or external interface devices shall not restrict maintenance and servicing of UPS. Any factory trained service provider shall be capable of performing maintenance and repair of the UPS. Calibration and diagnostics of the UPS shall be performed either remotely or thru the front display and shall be facilitated thru programmable parameters. Potentiometers shall not be used for calibration.

3 The equipment purchase price shall include any/all hardware interface devices and/or software required to repair, adjust and maintain the UPS system.

7 SINGLE MODULE SYSTEM OPERATION

1 Double Conversion: The inverter shall supply AC power continuously to the critical loads. The inverter output shall be synchronized with the bypass AC power source provided that the bypass AC power source is within the specified frequency range. The rectifier/charger shall convert the normal AC input power to DC power for the inverter and for charging the battery.

2 eBoost (high efficiency): High-efficiency operating mode (eBoost) shall be available as an option. The static bypass switch shall supply AC power continuously to the critical loads when this mode is enabled. Load will be transferred to Inverter when bypass source goes out of set limits. When operating in eBoost Operating Mode, the UPS output voltage waveform shall not deviate from the limits set by the ITI (CBEMA) curve (2000).

Each UPS module shall contain an inductor in the internal bypass circuit. The purpose of this inductor shall be to balance the impedances of the paralleled UPS bypass circuits and reduce or eliminate the need to equalize cable lengths. This inductor shall also couple with the normal UPS output filter components to further reduce the effect of utility transient events on the critical load.

During eBoost operation, with the load fed by the static bypass path, the inverter output transformer shall be magnetized via back-feed from the static bypass feed path. Maintaining the inverter output transformer continuously energized during eBoost operation allows very fast transfer to inverter as required maintaining load power integrity.

The user shall have the option of configuring scheduled activation of eBoost operation (start/stop time for each day of the week).

The UPS shall monitor the bypass utility, and maintain separate counters of the disturbances observed based on their duration. The counters collected over a seven days period shall be used to assess the quality of the bypass utility by computing a Bypass Utility Reliability Index (eBoost rate) expressed in percentage. Higher number of disturbances, longer duration and/or fast repetition of the disturbances shall lead to a lower Bypass Utility Reliability Index.

During eBoost operation, the UPS will transfer to inverter when the bypass source goes out of set limit, and it will revert to bypass operation once the utility is within given tolerances and stable. The transfer to bypass shall be delayed based on the Bypass Utility Reliability Index.

3 Loss of Normal AC Input Power: The battery shall supply DC power to the inverter so that there is no interruption of AC power to the critical loads whenever the normal AC input power source of the UPS module deviates from the specified tolerances or fails completely. The battery shall continue to supply power to the inverter for the specified protection time.

4 Return of Normal AC Input Power Source: The rectifier/charger shall start and assume the DC load from the battery when the normal AC input power source returns. The rectifier/charger shall then simultaneously supply the inverter with DC power and recharge the battery. This shall be an automatic function and shall cause no disturbance to the critical load.

5 Transfer to Bypass AC Power Source: If the control circuitry senses an overload, an inverter shutdown signal or degradation of the inverter output, then it shall automatically transfer the critical loads from the inverter output to the bypass AC power source without an interruption of power. If the bypass AC power source is above or below normal voltage limits, then the transfer shall be inhibited.

6 Retransfer to Inverter: The static bypass switch shall be capable of automatically retransferring the load back to the inverter after the inverter has returned to normal conditions. Retransfer shall not occur if the two sources are not synchronized. The static bypass switch control circuit shall have the ability to lock the critical load to either the inverter output or the bypass source (selectable) after multiple transfer-retransfer operations. This lockout condition shall be reset automatically (after an adjustable delay period) or under manual command through remote communications software.

7 Downgrade: If the battery is taken out of service for maintenance, it shall be disconnected from the rectifier/charger and inverter. The UPS shall continue to function and meet the performance criteria specified herein except for the battery reserve time 0and step load performance.
